I hate it when that happens. Obviously my decision to house a tres leches parfait and half bottle of wine last night was ill advised. Whoopsie. I was in a weak place and after successfully installing a tiled backsplash (and using a wet saw, thank you very much) I was in full blown MAMMANEEDSAGODDAMNTREAT mode. Unfortunately, the treats I keep choosing give me zits and mood swings, so I need to manage this a little differently. The satiating effects of a tres leches parfait and many glasses of red wine will be hard to replicate, but maybe I can get close?
What's your favorite MAMMANEEDSAGODDAMNTREAT treat that doesn't destroy your sandcastle of healthy eating? I need suggestions...
In other news, have you heard of a Bulgarian sandbag? Didn't think so.
They look like this:
And now, thanks to Bonita, I have a 27# Bulgarian sandbag of my very own.
His name is Viktor and we are totally in love. Totally. He's going to help me train to climb that damn mountain. Oh, that damn mountain. I'll make it there.
While we are on the subject of Places I Long to See....

Hmmm... the Alhambra? a purple magical parade that has something to do with Arabic? Somewhere in Central or South America? I have no idea... perhaps an island off New Zealand? Again, no idea... but the Swiss like clocks, so maybe Swizerland? and finally... Scotland? Enlighten us where these beautiful places are!
you got the first one correct, the Alhambra in Granada! the rest are as follows:
Holi Festival of colors in India
Angkor Wat in Cambodia
Islands off the coast of Panama
Prague
Iceland
le sigh.
Definitely go to Prague and see the clock. Definitely.
As for treats...
The pumpkin gingerbread cake recipe on my blog has been updated and, if I may be so bold, perfected. It's made from almond butter, pumpkin, and a little honey -- very satisfying, tastes rich, no poison. Also, how 'bout fruit topped with whipped "cream" made from coconut milk -- also taste totally decadent, but won't bring down the house of cards.
Love you!
